Burj Khalifa Viewpoint
From an architectural and design standpoint, the Burj Khalifa is very impressive. When you see the size of it in person, you realise just how massive it is! Your neck has to jolt back to its maximum so see just how tall is it.
We decided to pay for the viewpoint experience. The price was very extortionate at over £150. The views were very nice but it was quite over-crowded with people looking to get pictures in the prime locations.
The pictures taken by staff as a mock in front of the Burj Khalifa were both pathetic and ridiculous. Lady tried to charge me £400 for some pictures taken on what looked like a 1.3 mega pixel camera!
I’d not recommend going to the viewpoint. If the weather turns out to not be in your favour, all you will see is haze or dust from the sand passing in the atmosphere at that altitude.
The Burj Khalifa is best viewed looking at it from outside, not from within looking out.

Eggspectation Restaurant Cafe JBR
My first time trying Eggspectation in Dubai and one word sum it up for me: delicious!
We visited with close friends today and the overall experience was very pleasant.
The cafe has a great ambience to it and looks onto the JBR beach, so location is fantastic and within close proximity to another of amenities.
The food quality, portion sizes and taste was excellent. We opted for the eggs Benedict brunches, club sandwiches alongside some fries, potato’s chips and other appetisers and drinks. Everything tasted really fresh. The price-to-quality ratio was good. The portion sizes were last. Staff were really friendly and accommodated all of our needs with the best customer service.
Highly recommend. Will definitely look to visit again!

Shake Shack
Excellent tasting burgers!
It was my first time trying out Shake Shack and I wasn’t disappointed! The food is simple, high quality and tasty. The ratio of meat to salad / sauces is perfect. The patty meat is exceptional and tastes very fresh, in comparison to McDonald’s, which tasted processed.
Price to quality ratio is good. Portion sizes are adequate, though I feel the portion sizes for the chips could be bigger. I love the fact that the drinks are refillable too.
Customer service I received was great. Would highly recommend.

Original Fried Chicken
I’ve been eating at this legendary fast-food joint since my early teens. Whenever I’m in the local area, I need to indulge in some food from here. They offer a variety of different meals, ranging from chicken burgers, spicy wings to even more mainstream south Asian dishes, such as lamb chops and biryani. The overall quality of their food cannot be compared to. It’s always fresh, portion sizes are very generous and the overall price to quality ratio is excellent. The food tastes really fresh and is always piping hot. The hot wings are one of my favourite. The place has a nice ambience to it and a general sense of a tight knit community feel. The restaurant is located within very close proximity to the underground, which has always made it very convenient for me to come. They are opened until very late but the food consistently remains fresh.
The superstar of this place is the manager, Arif. He is a real asset to this business. Arif has excellent customer service skills: he’s always very friendly and helpful. When you have great staff, such as Arif, you want to come back even more. Any customer who walks in will usually be served by him and it’s always a positive experience. Thanks Arif!
I’d recommend anyone visiting this area to check out PFC. A true og in the east end of London!
